Letter to TV-Nihon, which may be irrelevant now

To whom it may concern:

Using the freely available public raw to release your episode is not all that difficult. Observe the following:

LWLibavVideoSource("[THISFILEHASNOSUBS] GARO - Makai Tales - 12 [10B89030].mkv", stacked=true, format="YUV420P16")
#for HD
dither_Resize16(1280,720, kernel="bicubic", a1=-.5, a2=.25)
#for SD
#dither_Resize16(854,480, kernel="bicubic", a1=-.5, a2=.25)
ditherpost(mode=0)

You can even upscale back to 1080 if you desire. It... won't be great, but seeing as you are already upscaling 1440x1080 to 1920x1080, this is just an expansion in two directions instead of one. I wouldn't suggest using bicubic with those parameters for such a thing though. Probably more something like:

dither_Resize16(1920,1080, kernel="spline16")

Anyway, anything after the ditherpost() call will be in nice, avisynth friendly 8-bit format, so you can add subtitles and splashes and whatever at will. If you aren't familiar with dithertools or l-smash source they can be found here:

Just load the dlls and import the avsi, or dump them in your auto-load directory if that's how you usually roll.

Don't skip the finale of a show that you know has raws available out of pride.
